The problem, of course, is working out what the hell the translation for "weigh-in" is in each language! As it's not a conventional word as such, like apple or house. But with a little trial and error and trusty Google Translate, sometimes it works!! And being a languages student helps too ! Cos you kind of get a feel for what is "right", at least in the European languages.

Simples!

thanks, you must spend a lot of time looking, keep it up the pics are all great.
i will try your tip as i know boxing and other forms of fighting are populay in other countries so maybe there will be more pics.
have you ever been to a weigh-in and took pictures of your own?

Re: boxing weigh-ins

Thanks Joe, please keep it up! Sorry I don't have any pictures to contribute to the thread; but I am enjoying it

Watching the video with the female boxer does bring up a question (I never thought of it till now). Would they expect a female wrestler/boxer to get stripped down for a weigh in??? Just wondering...I prefer looking at the guys anyway; but there may be a "double standard" going on here!??1!

ha ha!! no it happens with the women as well and as you can see from the picture the guys get to hold the towel for them too!!

you will have to attend a weigh-in they dont just have them in small locations, some of the higher profile ones take place in shopping centres!!!!
its only 2 weeks untill i'm going to a weigh-in

Re: boxing weigh-ins

Ha! Though I enjoy seeing the guys strip down, the possibility of the gals having to strip for a weigh-in adds another level of interest to the whole thing..

Keep up the good work Joe...Wish I had something more to contribute other than words. Let us know what happens when you go to a weigh in!!!!

i am hoping to get some good pictures, the last weigh-in i went to a guy got naked (i posted the pics a few weeks ago) but you didnt see anything there as we were too far away.
i hope this time i can take some pictures like the people in the photo below.
look how many people are taking pictures and he does'nt seem to mind

Re: boxing weigh-ins

Even more awesome pics! Very glad that you got the caps of the weigh-in at the top of the page! Also, I love the ones where the guys get naked BUT still have some sort of jewellery on, or even better, one of those wristbands that they're made to wear -- they take absolutely everything off in order to make weight, but not these!

Heh, well I don't spend THAT much time looking lol, just one day I might think, ooo, I wonder whether there are any pics from...China! Kind of like that lol! (and indeed there are!)

Never been to one myself, but I think there are quite a few boxing gyms nearby, hmm maybe I should reconsider my career in life!

nice!!
gym weigh-in

I LOVE that first pic!!

I know what you mean too, particularly when you see videos where other people in the room can clearly see everything but the camera is just positioned so that we can't! Or even better, when a picture has obviously been edited/cropped - some lucky bugger got to censor the original!

i would like that job too, editing pictures of naked guys flexing in the buff!!

Re: boxing weigh-ins

hope you all like the pics of the weigh-in i went to.
it was so hot seeing all the guys stripping down infromt of so many people and cameras.
some of the guys even stood around in their underwear untill it was thier turn to get weighed.
no one got naked unfortunately but it was still worth going!!!!
cant wait untill next time
